Tu Duc 5 Tien ND (1848-1883) UNC Details (Scratches) NGC, KM457, Sch-359. A fortunate encounter in any condition, this attractive and intriguing design displays five bats around the denomination and fully realized design elements atop lightly toned surfaces. Scratches at the outer registers are thought to be mint-made, in an effort to strengthen the rim, while a subtle checkerboard pattern of raised die lines on the reverse adds further interest. In total, a perpetually popular issue worthy of great attention.
